• You are immune to disease
• You don't need to eat, drink, or breathe

Sentry's Rest

When you take a long rest, you must spend at least 6 hours in an inactive, motionless state, rather than sleeping. In this state, you appear inert, but you remain conscious.

Integrated Protection

Your body has built-in defensive layers, which determine your Armor Class. You gain no benefit from wearing armor, but if you are using a shield, you apply its bonus as normal. You can alter your body to enter different defensive modes; each time you finish a long rest, choose one mode:

• Darkwood Core: AC = 11 + Dexterity modifier (add proficiency bonus if proficient with light armor)
• Composite Plating: AC = 13 + Dexterity modifier (maximum of 2) (add proficiency bonus if proficient with medium armor)
• Heavy Plating: AC = 16 (add proficiency bonus if proficient with heavy armor, disadvantage on Stealth)

You gain one skill proficiency and one tool proficiency of your choice.

Languages

You can speak, read, and write Common and one other language of your choice.
